 OPPOSITION TO A RECEIVER WITHDRAWN.
 The hearing the application of Insurance Com missioner F5ler for the appointment of receiver resumed at Hartford yesterday before Judge Car penter; A conference was held before the hearing, Messrs. A P. Hyde and H. c. Robinson, s0a Mesf 0r fs p9Tkns and q g Go counsel for the Continental stockholders; On the opening or the nearing MT. hODlnSOn SlaLeQ that the counsel for the Continental Life Insurance company had consented to the appointment of re- ceiver. Mr. Perkins said the counsel had agreed to the passage of decree in order to avoid long and expensive litigation. Counsel had not seen the de cree, and wodld like opportunity to examine it. He would also ask brief delay in order to select for receivers. Judge Carpenter inquired what bond should be required. In answer to 8 question by Mir. Robinson Commissioner Fyler said the assets of the company would not exceed half a million. He would suggest a bond of $50OOO or $1O0,OO0 each, if two receivers appointed. The amount in the Charter Oak case was $250.O00 each, but the assets larger The judge said that S75 900 each would be right if two receivers were appoint ed, 000 if only one was appointed. He stat ed that he would make no appointment until the form of the decree is known. h naming receiv- or he would do the best he could, and he hoped no one would be suggested who would not do the best for all concerned. He had acted in all matters of this kind the principle that all parties in interest against whom either had objections There plenty of men to choose from. He would hear names, but in his opinion they not the right persons he would take the bit in his mouth and make his own selection. The hearing was then ad- journed until o'clock this morning. While Lieuten ant Governor Cooke's name was the only one made public, counsel for Commissioner Tyler also sug gest the Hon. George P. Mclean as associate re ceiver. No mention made of the amended complaint ordered by the court which was pub lished ten days ago. This showed additional inn pairment in the assets of the company of nearly $100 000 and it is probable that the counsel for the stockholders thought it useless to further contest the appointment of a receiver.
